alt Hacker NewsI'm not the parent but if you know you want to merge a PR "within a few seconds" then you're likely to be merging in bad changes.
If you had left it at know you want to reject a PR within a few seconds, that'd be fine.
Although with safety critical systems I'd probably want each contributor to have some experience in the field too.

"*WANT* to close or *WANT* to merge". Not WILL close or WILL merge.
You look at the PR and you know just by looking at it for a few seconds if it looks off or not.
Looks off -> "Want to close"
Write a polite response and close the issue.
Doesn't look off -> "Want to merge"
If we want to merge it, then of course you look at it more closely. Or label it and move on with the triage.
Sounds like you misunderstood. They didn't say they are merging PRs after a few seconds. Just that the difference between a good one and a bad is often obvious after a few seconds. Edit: typos
